I was delighted to recently have the above new work included in the Brown Grotta Arts exhibition entitled Retro/Prospective: 25+ Years of Art Textiles and Sculpture A subtly gradating palette of about 20 different yarns in cotton, silk, rayon and lurex was used in my trademark 'Loose Threads' arrangement. The threads are encapsulated in acrylic resin and cast into a gently curved arc. The exhibition can now be viewed online - do go check out the inspirational gallery photographs and, as ever, I'm rather humbled to have work seen alongside some seminal names in the world of fibre art.

With thanks to the Arts Council of Wales: this work was made as part of my Creative Wales Ambassador Award.

About Me

Born and brought up in Pembrokeshire, I studied woven textiles in the University of Central England, The Royal College of Art, and then went on to become one of the founding Fellows of The Ann Sutton Foundation, a weave design research centre in Sussex.
Since completing my Fellowship in 2003, I've been working from my studio South Wales, dividing my time between public art commissions, research and freelance design consultancy to the home furnishings industry. I also teach woven textiles on the BA Textiles course in Carmarthen School of Art, Coleg Sir Gar.
